necessary vaxes? homeopathy?

[tinksmama]

Just a couple of questions... what are the absolute necessary vaxes for a puppy? I say this coming from my perspective,which is (in humans also) not to put poison in the body unless it's very necessary, not to debate opinions on this, but to ask, what are the absolute needs?
I think rabies without question, and Tinks going for her last 5 in 1 booster soon, I haven't gotten corona or bordatella, what's up with those? Any info would be helpful-
Mordy seems to know an awful lot about this kind of stuff.... :D any advice would be helpful, it's not urgent, just curious.

Our vet told us that bordatella is not strictly ness. unless our will be boarded or come into contact with lots of other dogs. We give it anyway on the off chance that they need an emergency board. Corona I'm not sure about.

really it depends on where you live and what your dog's lifestyle is. i've never vacced for corona- none of the vets around here seem to do it- and i don't vacc for bordatella unless i have to for boarding/obedience class purposes (where i take classes now doesn't require it).

rabies is non-negotiable as it's the law.

i agree to some extent about not "poisoning" the body unless necessary, but it's better that the dog be vaccinated and deal with vaccines than be unprotected and get sick. things like parvo can and do kill pups. bordatella... more of an annoyance than anything in most otherwise healthy animals.

there's no one set answer for all dogs.

Distemper, Hepatitis, Parainfluenza, Leptospirosis and Parvovirus: DHLP-P Vaccine protects your dog from the major airborne Upper Respiratory &
GastroIntestinal Viruses. Some of these diseases can be spread by wild animals such as skunks, foxes & raccoons, as well as unvaccinated dogs.
Also heartworm pills and rabies vac.
